Soul Project NOLA (USA)

SOUL PROJECT NOLA (USA) Soul Project NOLA brings the authentic New Orleans spirit back to Herr Nilsen! You'll experience an explosive blend of blues, funk, soul and gospel – delivered by musicians who carry on the legacy of Walter "Wolfman" Washington. Bandleader Jon Cristian Duque and drummer Wayne Maureau played in his band themselves, and together they deliver an expression filled with edge, warmth and raw musical energy. The band has visited Norway three times before, and when they played to a packed Herr Nilsen in 2023 there was a standing ovation from the very first song. The audience wouldn't let them leave – and now they are finally back. In 2022 and 2023 they recorded live sessions in Norway, which are now out on vinyl – a release that has already received glowing reviews. Line-up: • Jon Cristian Duque – guitar/vocals • Wayne Maureau – drums • Wanda Joseph – bass/vocals • Michael Burkhart – keys • Eric Berhardt – saxophone • David Ludman – saxophone When Soul Project NOLA takes the stage, it's simply impossible to sit still. This will be an evening filled with groove, playfulness and genuine New Orleans magic. Welcome to one of the summer's great musical highlights!
